I totally agree with you, but her feeling is that maybe she should not survive. I could not disagree more. I held her and she was in my opinion trying to suckle, which means to me that she knows what to do and what she needs. I gave her back very quickly and said “ I think she is hungry”, so the breeder held her to the mother’s breast, but being so tiny she kept loosing the teat.
She needs a lot more attention, and constant supervision to make sure she gets enough to eat. She is so very tiny that the loss of just one meal, could be her last.
I am more than sad, and have cried all day.
